    Let's get together on Friday October 10, 2025 at Camp May pavilion.  There is a fireplace and a covered area with picnic tables.  We will attempt to recreate our gathering of July 23,2024 with a potluck dinner, campfire and stories.  Note that Ellen Mills's final Ski Hill Potluck Dinner Hike is on October 3.  This outing can be considered an add-on to that series of hikes and potluck dinners.

    This will be a 2-night backpack to the Sangre de Cristos in Colorado, doing a loop on the Venable and Comanche trails via Phantom Terrace. The terrace is known for its exposure and the loop for its views. The elevation gain is quite significant, ca. 3,000 ft the first day over 4.5 miles, another 1,000 ft the second day to the ridge, plus two (if time permits) summmits to Venable and Comanche peaks, both of them over 13,000 ft (that's another 1,100 ft or so in combined elevation gain).

    I would like to announce the seventeenth edition of our successful hike/explore/bike trips to Moab. We have been going almost every November since 2008, and every time has been a great success. The 2014 trip report can be found at http://lamountaineers.org/node/479#comment-57. Let me (Bill Priedhorsky) know if you would like to join the trip.

    We have many times travelled to Bluff, Utah for a taste of the canyon country. Bluff is less than six hours from Los Alamos and, situated along the San Juan River, at a low altitude best suited for trips late or early in the season. Even in early December the average daily high is around 50 F. There are numerous places to hike and explore from Bluff, including the ruins and big views of Comb Ridge, the canyons accessible from Cedar Mesa, the canyon rim just north of Bluff itself, and farther afield to places like White Canyon.

    For a completely different outing, I propose a river trip in early spring 2026 to the Lower Canyons of the Rio Grande in the Big Bend area, with an outfitter, Far Flung Expeditions, that comes well-recommended by a friend. We will leave Los Alamos and environs on Friday, March 27, driving to Marathon, Texas, about an 8-hour drive. We will meet the outfitter and go onto the river the next day, Saturday, and emerge from the canyons on Saturday, April 4. After overnighting, we will drive back home April 5. We will carpool as much as possible, to minimize driving costs and parking needs.
